Paws Etc. reserves the right to amend these terms and conditions at any time.
All Pets must be on a lead or in a carrier when entering the salon. Even if your pet is well trained off the lead we kindly ask that they are kept on a lead when entering the store and salon for safety purposes.
If you have forgotten your lead, please ask a member of the team so we can provide one for you to borrow to get your pet in and out of the car and salon safely.
Please ensure that your pet has been relieved before they enter the salon, this ensures they are comfortable throughout the groom.
We kindly ask that you endeavour to arrive for your scheduled appointment on time but no sooner than 10mins before the start of the groom.
We like to ask for at least 1 hour for bath and brushes and between 1-3 hours for a full groom depending on the breed and size.
If you are late dropping your pet off or showing up early to pick your pet up. This may take the groomer longer to finish the groom as your pet will need to settle down before we can continue. This then sets us back throughout the rest of the day. We polity ask that you do not turn up 10 minutes before the scheduled drop off or pick up time but no more than 15 minutes late to drop off or pick up.
We want to ensure grooming is enjoyable as possible for your pet which means we will not rush our grooms and we may give breaks on occasions where your pet is elderly or getting stressed. We will not keep your pets here any longer than needed if they are getting stressed and uncomfortable.
All pets must be bathed in our salon so we can ensure their coat has been cleaned thoroughly and prepped properly ready to be groomed.
(There is no discount to dogs being bathed at home).
A professional bath, brush and blow dry with only natural products is carried out with every grooming appointment.
We always try our very best to groom your pet to the style and length of your choice.
If for any reason you would like us to tweak your pet’s haircut, please contact us within 48 hours and we will correct any issues with no charge (excludes bath and depending on availability).
We recommend waiting 2 weeks after the 2nd vaccination before booking a puppy into the salon.
We will not groom any dog that is listed or crossed with any dog under the Dangerous Dog Act 1991.
Full grooms will be £10 extra an hour if your pets require more than one groomer e.g. aggressive, big or elderly etc.
During busy periods (especially Christmas) we will ask for a deposit to secure your booking

Making an appointment reserves that space for your pet, but when someone cancels last minutes or does not show up for the scheduled appointment not only do we lose money but we could have gave that appointment slot to another customer.
